Speaker Kevin Goodman returned to share his knowledge and research on Arthur Shuttlewood after many nights spent on Cradle Hill in the 1970s. August 1990 at around 21:00: a diamond object estimated to be 100 feet wide was seen and photographed by two men near Calvine, Perth and Kinross, Scotland. It was reported as hovering silently in place for 10 minutes before rising rapidly into the sky. [66] October 1967: "Devon Flying Cross UFO" – At 4:00, PCs Roger Willey and Clifford Waycott were driving from Holsworthy to Hatherleigh along the A3072. They saw a bright object in the shape of a cross at tree-top height about 40 metres away. They followed the "pulsating" object for about fifteen minutes along the road at speeds of up to 80mph. The object was described as being star-spangled like "looking through wet glass". It was joined by a second object at 4:23. A motorist, Mr Christopher Garner of Hatherleigh, had also seen it and thought he was having a nightmare. The object disappeared at around 5:00, having been pursued for fourteen miles [ by whom?]. It was attributed to the planet Venus, [37] as were other similar sightings that same month. [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] Friars of Byland Abbey, described of "a flat, round shining silvery object" flying overhead of them. [2] [ unreliable source?] However, this report is a hoax perpetrated by two teenagers in the 1950s. [3] [4] January 1974: A UFO allegedly crashed on the Berwyn Mountains in Wales. The event coincided with an earthquake. [48]

February 1942: A woman named Eileen Arnold was walking down Cheltenham High Street when she suddenly experienced an altered state of consciousness as she became "tuned into another reality". She became aware of a large oval shape moving slowly above the rooftops. She stated that it radiated light from holes in its side and had quills which detached one by one, also emitting light. Following the encounter, Eileen believed she had numerous psychic experiences. [5] Whether Warminster was a cultural/social event or a genuine Ufocal, far too much time has now passed for any accurate investigations to be made.I saw about 5 or six lights above Dezies before xmas! Did any one elss see them?I love Wiltshire full of wird things lol Father used to go to Cradle Hill a lot and there used to be quite a few of them up there because there were a lot of unusual sightings at the time. He said: “We are really proud of what we have achieved for the first event and we hope to make it a regular thing.

Other strange sightings

The town is within the area of Wiltshire Police, [100] who have a station at The Avenue, in the centre of the town near the fire station. [101] Until 2021 the police station was at Station Road, but the Police and Crime Commissioner described that building as "not fit for purpose". [102] The former and now disused Warminster Police Station from Station Road Sightings and unexplained noises continued intermittently over the coming years, ranging from “a ball of crimson light” in the sky to a “terrible droning sound” that made the witness’s floor and bed shake. Interest in the mysterious phenomenon remained strong. In 1966, the BBC filmed Pie in the Sky, a documentary about the events. Shuttlewood penned several books on the subject, while a local UFO enthusiast named Ken Rogers began publishing The Warminster UFO newsletter. One thing is certain however. Despite all the new research into the phenomena in this quiet Wiltshire town all I can say is this: something strange did happen there. I know. For a time, I was part of it.
